Chapter 317, Dead Sea Taboo
The next day, the sky was still black, and the blood moon was still high.
I got up and washed up and took out a pocket watch.
"Don't move.
Don't know the passage of time.
。
”
With a hint of solemnity, he put away his pocket watch, and in his opinion, the most dangerous thing in this world is not knowing the passage of time.
He only had half a year, and every minute of his life passed in half a year, which was impossible to observe, and maybe by the time he realized that something was wrong, it would be too late.
He can't know the exact time now, he can only estimate it, but there must be an error, although it is not too big, but the accumulation of these errors will be a very terrifying number.
Maybe only two months have passed in the empty cognition, but half a year has passed in reality, and then it will be troublesome.
After tidying up, Paimon rubbed his eyes as well.
"Empty, what time is it?
。 ”
"I don't know, but I'm just getting up."
Paimon stretched, looking out the window at the black.
"What.
Before dawn, I slept a little longer.
”
With that, Paimon went down again, and Sora didn't call her, leaving her to sleep, this is Solstice, his territory, but for a short time, it's safe here.
Putting on his coat, Sora gently closed the door and arrived at the council chamber, where he was greeted by Balaru.
"Sora-sama, how are you resting?"
"It's alright, what about Fischl?"
Dawa said.
"Miss Fischl and the three of them played late yesterday, and they should still be resting at this time."
Sora's brow furrowed even deeper, he didn't think that Fischl and the others had a bad time, it was okay to have some fun in this world and relax.
It's just that the matter of Fischl and the three of them made him more aware of the seriousness of time being molded.
Normally, even if there is no clock, people in the real world will rely on day and night to distinguish the time, and when it is dark, it almost means that it is time to rest, so that even if there is no clock, people's consciousness of time will never be more than a day.
But in this extreme dark night, maybe you are awake and active for more than ten hours, and then sleep for eight or nine hours, and you may be a little sleepy for ten hours, no matter what you see when you wake up and see the night, he will think that he has only passed a day, but in fact it has been more than 30 hours.
Compared to 24 hours, a day is only a few hours extended, but over time, this error will become larger and larger, and you will be lost in time.
"Big baby, how do you confirm the time in this world?"
The big baby is confused.
"It's full of ghosts.
。 Time means nothing to us, no one.
No, no ghost cares about that. ”
"Then how do you know that in half a year I will lose my life and turn into a real ghost?"
Balaru seemed to understand something.
"Your Excellency wants to confirm the passage of time? I'm so sorry.
。 Although the Fatui have all been trained in special transformations, in this world, it is really impossible to determine the time with our means, and as for how we know, it is waiting for the ghosts of the Isle of Life to come out. ”
Empty eyes lit up.
"There's time on Raw Island!?"
Soon, his face became bitter again, because there was no meaning, if he went to Shengdao, he would leave directly, would he care about the amount of time.
The big baby touched her chin.
"It's not completely impossible.
。 I once heard an old ghost say that the Dead Sea is a great shipping route, and that there are many strange islands in this sea, and among them is the Clock Tower Island, where the natural bell tower seems to be walkable. ”
As she spoke, Dawa reminded.
"But no one knows whether the time to make the bell tower is accurate, and if it is not, it is a huge trap for people who have strayed into the living."
Empty thought thought.
"Traps.
But I can only go and see it, and I can't stay here forever and wait for death, or I have to go to sea. ”
Balaru said.
"If you want to go to sea, there are a few rules you must know, the most dangerous place in the world is the sea."
"You say, I'll listen."
"Well, first, the ship that goes to sea must be a ship made of human-faced wood, there are many kinds of trees in this world, but only a ship made of human-faced wood can sail in the Dead Sea, and other woods will only gradually decompose when they touch the sea."
The sky rang out with the ship Klee and Paimon had brought.
"Is there a face wood on this road?"
"Yes, but it's very rare, and it's basically in the hands of a few large ghost towns, you know, the island where we are located corresponds to Alabastan, and the supplies are already expensive, and at present, in Winter City, there are only ten small wooden boats with human faces, all of which have been dispatched."
Empty nodded in understanding.
"Go on."
"Second, when sailing, it is forbidden to salvage everything on the sea, you can see all kinds of treasures on the sea, those treasures are real, but they are also deadly, once they are salvaged, they are basically dead, the sea is dangerous, the ghosts living in the sea are even more dangerous, and we only occasionally pick up some treasures that float to the shore."
Sora pondered the possibility of whether there was a bug in the card, and his ability to absorb all the treasures and convert them into points, so he could experiment with it when he found a chance.
"Anything else?"
Balaru's miserable white eyes were gloomy.
"And finally, and most importantly, when sailing at sea, you must get out of the way of any ship at the first time, although there are still many ghosts who go to other islands to invade at sea, but they will follow this rule, and the two ships meet most likely because of the fact that both sides avoid together, and the reason for all this is because there is a taboo legend on the Dead Sea.
。 ”
"Goodu.
。 ”
Empty swallowed his saliva and looked at Balailu deadly, and Balailu didn't sell it.
"Legend.
。 There is a living ship on the sea, called Hades, and any ship that stands in its way will eventually disappear without a trace, and it is the only overlord on the sea. ”
"Hades!? Alive!? ”
Dawa knows more things than Balailu, after all, she has lived longer than Balaglu.
"We can't confirm whether this Hades is one of the three legendary weapons, but in this world, he is indeed called Hades, and he is a conscious ship."
"Hades is in the underworld.
。 It seems, and it's reasonable.
。 ”
Balaru said.
"My lord, in short, if you want to sail, it is best to build a big ship, the bigger the ship that sails, the safer it is on the Stygian Sea, at present I plan to plunder the two big cities, and please decide."
Shaking his head, Balaru also expressed his understanding, after all, any big city is a strong enemy for the current Solstice City, even if they have a bug weapon like Slime, but they are all hundreds of thousands of years of accumulated heritage.
At this time, Sora said.
"The two are meaningless, just knock them all down and let them go to the East City.
Become a winter country! ”
Dawa and Balaru were shocked, and then their eyes showed fanaticism, they were originally from the Fatui, and their ambitions have never been extinguished.
Hearing Sora's words, the two of them immediately beat their chests and saluted.
"Ulla!
! ”
